The Island of Cuba t once more the thea
ter of a revolutionary movement, which it is
es Mat, from advices received through lade
po 'Jaunt sources, is a very serious affair, al- -
though the Captain-General his persistently
endeavored to suppress the truth regarding
it so far as his control of the Cuban terminus
of tile Gulf Cable enables him to do so. The
movement, thouch not general, seems to bo
pretty extensive in its ramifications, but the
principal scene of the actual revolt is the
Eastern district
,ot the Island, 'where the in
surrection has aasumed an organized form,
and where it finds leaders and supporters
among the most wealthy and respectable
class of the population. The operations in
the East are, however, directed and con
trolled by a Revolutionary Junta at Havana,
which has issued an address to the entire
people of Cuba, calling upon them - to unite
their energies. for the purpose of attaining
deliverance from the despotism which .has
hitherto ruled the Island with an iron hand.
The insurgents detnand independence of
Spain and annexation with the United States.
There is unquestionably much sympathy for
the Movement, not only among all classes
there, but here. Those who aid. the move
ment in the United States claim that large
amounts of money have been subscribed and
that war material In abundance will bo
placed at the disposal of those who, sympa
thizing with unfortunate Cuba, take part from
the mainland in her liberation from the
Spanish yoke.
The only reason which induced the Radi
cals to force negro suffrage upon the South
was their idea that, by that means, they
would gain power in that section, and per
petuate It throughout the country by its in
fluence. It was nol los e for the negro,
no motive of statesmanship, that led to their
revolutionary action. flad they been satis
fied that the negroes Would not support their
ticket, but that they would vote with the
Southern whites, they would have been the
last persons in the world to have entrusted
them with political power. The result of the
late election I n Georgia, Alabama and Louisi
ana, where the negroes land either an -im
mense majority over the whites, or were
their equals in numbers; has completely dis
appointed the Radicals. In the defeat in
those States they see that, after all, their
finely-laid schemes, carried out by military
force and subsequent political intrigue, to es
tablish permanent' power in the South, can
not, eventually, win. It has enabled them to
tide-over this election, but that it is all. Will
they not now, seeing that the. Northern Car
pet-baggers can not, fur any •considerable
period, control Hie negro vote—that it can
not be rendered available to them—retrace
their steps and do what they know is but sim
ple, constitutional justice ; that is, permit the
Southern whites to regulate and controltheir
domestic •affairs the same as we do IN the
North? If they do not they will afford ano
ther memorable example of those who were
hoisted by their own petard.

The N. Y. Democrat truly says that to
lion. Wm. A. Wallace, Chairman of 'our
Democratic State Committer, -ts owing a
meet' or praise and gratitude which Demo
crats'all over the Cnion will be emulous to
pay. Ile has been'untiring in Lid efforts, and
has conducted the campaign with eminent
tact, judgment and ability. , He is the model
conductor of a political canvass, thinkiag.of
everything tool attending to everything
which ought to be done to command success."
Mr. Wallace was re-elected to the State Sen
ate in October, for a third term, leading his.
ticket, State, District and county, by a hand
some excess. This endorsement of the record
of Mr. Wallace as a servant of.. the people, is
the more marked and emphatic, on account
of his absence from the canvass in his dis
trict, his engagement as chairman of the State
Committee having required his presence in
Philadelphia during the entire camplalgn.
The most vile and unscrupulous means were
made use of to reduce Mr. Wallace's vote be
low that for the State ticket, and though he
was not upon the ground, in person, to coun
teract these base and cowardly efforts, the
shield of his own good name warded off
every assault and his enemies were thorough
ly and shamefully defeated.
Dispatches from the West say that Gener
al Sheridan has concluded to undertake a
vigorous campaign this winter against the
hostile Indiana on the Plains, and has taken
command in person of the troops South of
the Arkansas river. There is nothing which
the Indian fears so much -as a war in the
winter season. , In summer. when he has
plenty.to live upon, he is haughty, offensive
and default. At the approach of winter,
when Starvation stares him in the face, he
is complac.ent and sues for treaties of peace,
being quite ready to violate them when the
grass grows green again and the buffalo and
antelope return to their pastures. It has
been a cardinal error in our dealings with
the savages to assimilate our policy to this
characteristic of the Indian nature, instead
of adopting, vigorous measures when the
enemy was weak and in our power. The re
cent accounts of exploits performed on the
Plains within the past few months prove
that Sheridan is supported by a gallant band
of officers, ...st, of whom are accustomed to
Indian • are, and while we are not In
d' cnt to the Zangers to be encountered we
hope for every success to the General's un
dertaking.

Wax so= of those Radical papers which
prate so loudly of Democratic election frauds,
and of contesting elections, please give us a
short chapter on the mode adopted by their
party for carrying on the canvass? Will they
tell how much money was raised and ex
pended—who gave and who received it—and
state the special use for which it was em
ployed ?. And will they at the same time be
good enough to inform their readers of the
extent to which white men are disfranchised
in some of the States? How about West
Virginia, where not less than 25,000 voters
are disfranchised? Or Missouri, where the
number e . xcluded from the polls reached 90,-
Co:FS s Or Tennessee, where 80,000 whites are
excluded' How about Virginla,—the moth
er c! S..stes and of Statesmen—zand of MiS3l.9-
ILpp: s.nd Texas, With an aggregate voting
of 2.50,000? These States were
dez. - :Ad any participation in the elections.
Their voice was not beard. Their judg
ment was not given. In comparison with
"frauds" like these, the greatest fraud which
the imagination of the Radicals has con
ctived in New York and Philadelphia is too
to be worth mentioning.

The Detroit Free Press—one of the best
Democratic journals in the great West—thus
discouties upon the future course of the Deal
ocmtici party:
"The Democratic party will not,because it
has met with defeat, abate for one moment
Its devotion to the great principles of civiliza
tion end progress, of justice and right, which
underlie' its organination and constitute the
bfillil of its existence. lt, is Struggling, not
for the aserndencvif individuals, but for the
success of principi . Holding ' those princi
ples as sacred' au , essential to the unity of
ei l
the nation and th prosperity o the people,
it cannot and will of abandon hem. They
are the well-sprin • from which Sows the
fountain of national existence, and they can
not be abandoned Merely bec ause those who
support them have met with temporary de
feat."
It Is not often that more sound common
sense is found in the saute number of lines,
and we earnestly commend the utterance of
our Western cotemporary to the Democra
cy of every section of the country..

Connecticut rotes in April next, New
Hampshire in March, and Flo#ida in Decem
ber. Owing to some unexplained reason,
Georgia and Alabama did not elect Congvess
men in November, though elections were
ordered. Texas, Mississippi and Virginia
have not accepted the terms of Recolist!nc
tion, and are not allowed representation.
The country will be the gainer by . the in
crease of Democratic Representatives and
Democratic brains in the next Congress.
The cx?erience of the last two Congresses
has shown how disastrous a thing it is for one
party to hare an overwhelming majority in
the national legislature; and though the
Democrats in the Forty-first Congress will be
too few to check all Radical legislation, they
will still be strong enough la numbers and
in brains to prevent a repetition of much of
the ill-advised and hasty action which has
well nigh made the mere name of Congress
a by-word and a reproach in the opinion of
all honest men,
FENIANISII STILL ALIVE
If any suppose that the principle of Fen
ianisna is dead, let them read the cable dis
patch that came from Cork last week. An
exiled Fenian died, and his remains were
carried to the grave attended by 6,000 of his
countrymen., There is a quiet• and deep sig
nificance in demonstrations like these. If
the Kings of France had learned from them
during the reign of Charles X. or, Louis
Philippe, and Lad respected the warning,
Louis Napoleon might still he a guest in the
London saloons. England can only hold
Ireland by doing Justice to Ireland, and by
an act of gracious and magnificent statesman
ship, which will dissolve in a year all the
dark 'and bitter memories that cover cen
turies of English oppression and misrule.
BANK AND BOND RODDERIES.-CriDIC fu
the form of bank robberies, bond robberies
and robberies generally in public places of
business Is rampant in New York. In one
day last weekthere were accounts of no less
than six different bank and bond robberies
and bold attempts at robbery. Those who
are detected are generally Englishmen, from
which fact It is evident there has been lately
an unusual immigration of that interesting

tad . oti scale unknown heretofore In this

an eff‘vtiro way to serve it by the adoption

we would suggest to Gen. Grant to sell the

of burning them up. The proceeds would
make a considerable item to no handed over

' c made the prediction during the can
itr at if Grant were elected the next
great schetne of the TO.aclicals . would be th
maize negro suffraect universal in all the
States, by :nears of an amendment ,to the
Federal ConstittaYon. The prophesy has not
required a long period for its verification.
Adviers from va - ushingten, with an air of au
thority, sax that one of the first measures
that will be introduced on the reassembling
of Congress in December will be a constitu
tional amendment providing fortheleipla
lion of glfrmge throughout the United States
—that such a bill will go through without a
'doubt, and that, the Legislatures of two
thirdsof the States {three-fourthsare wanted)
being republican, the amendment will be rat
ified and the question of Suffrage settled for
ever. We are ihrther informed that a ptom
!tient member of Congress (Sumner, we pro.
sume,) has prepared such an runendnient
the form of a bill, and that' Grant favors it,
and will lend it the influence of his adminis
tration. This may - or may not •be true. If
true, then there should certainly be no fur
ther controversy ad to Gen. Grant's political
status. It decides the 'question for all time
'to come—fur the man who thinks our organ
ic law can be legally changed neparding to
the programme of the radical revolutionists
never had the slightest conception of the true
principles of repnblican government. '
DP.ATU OP BARON ROTHSCHILD.
The cable Informs us of the death in Paris,
on Monday, of Baron James Rothschild, the
head of the famous Continental Banking
House which has branches in all the prinel
cipal cities of Europe. Be was a Gem=
Jew by birth, was born May 3,1792, and was
the last survivor of five brothers who com
prised the original firm- Though he fre
quently gave magnificent entettainments,rhe
was notoriously mean and very unpopular.
The Paris wits had many jests and shot many
arrows of satire at the old money-gethiC
whenever they met him in the Boulevards,
or saw him sunning his gray hairs In the
Bpis or the Champs Elysees. So wide was
his reputation for penuriousness, that the
beggars'neverasked him for alms. He was
probably worth $100,000,000 or $500,000,000
at the time of his death.
POLITICAL PARAGRAPIN.

SEVEN -TWO persons bare already been
announced as "sure" of appointments in Pres
ident Grant's Cabinet:
Tue Oil City Republican charges
. that a
-certain Radical candidate for U. S. Senator
"is already.busv buying votes." Why don't
the Republican give his name?
Mewrox Manmi, editor of the New York

for Mayor of that city. lie has brains and
pluck and would make a first class officer,

TIIE lIARIUSBURCI State Guard declares for
the re-nomination of Governor John W.
Geary, and is backed up by Forney's Press.
It looks much as if Geary would ho re-nomi
natad. •
Tun CITY of Galtnla forms two townships,
East and West, and Gen: Grant's residence
is on the East side. This gives twenty-eight
Republican Majority, while the West aide
gives twenty Democratic majority.
MINNESOTA gives Grant over 10,000 maj
ority, and adopts the amendment striking
the word "white" from the State Constitu
tion, The concession to the blacks is n fic
tion; for there aro none in the State.
TEE N. Y. Iliztuu) says: , "We are en
tering upon a period of• reyulslons like that
which England passed through before the re
sumption of specie payments, and all hands
bad better take in sail before it is too late."
Tae VENERABLE Secretary of the Navy is
reported to have had an idea. He proposes
to withdraw some of the expensive war•
steamers at foreign stations and supply their
places. with sailing vessels. Very good ! It
is never 100 late to mend.
'So to or the red hot German Radicals In
the West voted the following ticket at the
late election : "No President at all. Aboli
tion of that monarchical office by revision of
the Constitution. Government of the people
through their responsible agents in Con
gress:"
TEES PITTSBURGH POST says John Covode
will not contest the seat of Henry D. Foster
for member of Congress for the twenty-first
district. Governor Geary will, therefore, in
sert the name "of General Foster, instead of
that of Corode, is the list of members elect
from Pennsylvania.
TUE Dayton Ledger says: "The Radicals
have carried Ohio by from thirty to thirty
five thousand. They made gains over the
October election, in almost every county.
Pennsylvania, Indiana, Illinois, lowa, Wis
consin, &c., have likewise gone the same
way.
"Broad is the way that leads to death,
And thousands walk together there,
But wisdom shows a narrow path,
With here and there a traveller."
Lv Lortsumt, Grant received 1 vote and
Seymour 1,635 in a Parish where 472 Whites
and 1,998 Blacks were registered last year.
In Caddo, where the registry stood 2,987
Blacks to 777 Whites, Omit gets 1 vote and
Seymour 2,895. St. Mary, East Baton Rouge,
East Feliciana, and other Parishes show
smaller figures. St. Landry cast 4,800 votes
for Seymour and none for Grant, though
3,102 Blacks were registered In that Parish
last year.
IF Szvuotat and Blair bad been elected,
the present tightness in the money market,
and the high price of coal, would have been
seriously charged to that event. Every Rad
ical. newspaper in the country would have
dwelt upon this fact, and every Radical
stump speaker would have proclaimed 'it
with
,clarion voice—and, what is more,
their readers and hearers would have be
lieved them. , Now, that Grant is elected,
suppose they go to work and explain these
little difficulties in a philosophic manner.
Mis.sorut, Which pretends to be one of the
most Radical • States of the Union, voted
down a proposed negro suffrage amendment
by a large majority. The city of St. Louis,
while giving a majority of 2,884 for Grant,
gives 8,825 against negro suffrage. Yet the
Republican Senators and Representatives
from Missouri have always been ready to
vote negro suffrage upon the Southern States
as a condition precedent of their admission.
Missouri nee& reconstruction as much as
Virg:lda or Texas, according to the late elec
tion returns.
IT tan significant fact that the Democratic
vote of Pennsylvania aittays manifests it
self most strongly at the October elections,
while that of the opposition is greatest in
November. For twenty-eight years this has
been the rule. The following table will prove
it beyond a doubt :

"WRY 1R Tills THUS I"
the story rung, long yenrs ago, a Con
vention was held, at which all nations and
tribes were represented: and they resolved
that on a certain day., honr, minute and sec
ond,six months from that time, the whole In
habitants of earth should give a shout simul
tanonsly,tn ascertain the effect on this globe.
The second arrived and all were in position
to shout out the word a;-reed up on, viz:
"Boo:" hut not a sound was heard. Each
one wished to listen and notethe effect ; and
consequently the earth was never so still
since its creation as on that moment when
the, great noise was to have been made.
This incident of ancient times' has its par
allel in these wondrous days. The Republi
cans have apparently every reason to cry
"Boo" in concert, over their late success, hut
not a voice is raised. They are as silent as
the night. The cause for the ancient silence
is giien by a man who was present; hut who
is able to give a reason for the Present
silence? We will give our reason.. Itis btu
cause they do not know' the man they have
elected' They' stand in fearand tremblinz
lest they have elected a worse than a John
son for themselves. , Although they have
elected their chosen man,they are not cer
tain that he is just the one for them after all,
and they dare not shout—they have'no heart
or voice for shouting. Grant, like Mr. John
son, was always a Democrat ' lie is elected,
and will take the oath that Andrew Johnson
took, to protect and defend the Constitution.
If he lives up to his solemn oath, as Andrew
Johnson has done, he will be despised by
the Radicals and his only suppnrters•will be
Democrats. This is the thing the Radicals
are now contemplating, and such, a serious
matter is it that they have no' heart to re
joice over their success.—Watren

FESIALFIS, owing to the peculiar and impor •
, taut relations which they sustain, their pe
culiar organization, and the offices they per
forw, are subject to many sufferings. Freedom
from these contribute in no small degree to
their happiness and we/fare, for; none ealgbe

these various female complaints ea long be
tni
mured to run on without involvin the gener
al health of the Individual, and ere long produ

Tor the relief of these swims delicate affections
and only upon the most urgent necessity will a
true woman so far sacrifice her greatest charm
as to do this. The sex will then thank us for
placing in their hands simple epeelfles which
will be found efEctielous in relieving and curing
almost every One of those troublesome corn_
plaints peculia EXTRACTx.
HELSLEOLD'a OF Beene.—Hundreds
suffer on In silence, and hundreds of others ap
ply vainly to druggists and doctors, who either
merely tantalize them with the hope of a cure
or apply remedies which make them worse. 'I
would not wish 'to assert anything that would
do injustice to the afflicted, but I am obliged to
Ray trait although it may be produced from eX
cessive exhaustion of the powers of life, - ,by la
borious employment„ nwholesome air and
food, profuse menstruation, the use of tea and
coffee, and frequent childbirth, it Is far oftener
caused by direct, irritation, applied to the mu
. cons membrane of the vagina itself.
When reviewing the causes of these distress
ing complaints, it is most. painful to contem
plate the attendant evils consequent upon
them. It la but simple justice to the subject to
enumerate a few of the many additional causes
which so largely affect the life, health and hap
piness of woman In all classes of society, and
which, consequently, affect more or less direct
ly, the welfare of the entire human family. The
mania that exists for precocious education and
marriage, causes the years thatnature designed
for corporeal development to be wasted and
perverted in the restraints of
i dress the
early
confinement of school, and especially' n the un
healthy excitement of the ball-room. Thus,
with the body half-clothed, and the mind un
duly excited by pleasure, perverting in mid
night revel the hours designed by nature for.
sleep and rest, the work of destruction is half
accomplished.
In consequence of this e_arlyStmin upon her
system, unnecessary effort is required by the
delicate votary to retain her situation in school
at a later day, thus aggravating the evil. When
one excitement is over, another in`prospective
keeps the mind morbidly sensitive to impres
sion, while the now constant restraint of .M.sh
!enable dress, absolutely forbidding the exer
else indispensable to the attainment and reten
tion of organic health and strength; the expo
sure to night air; the sudden change of temper
ature; the complete prostration produced - by
excessive dancing, must of necessity produce
their legitimate effect. At last, en early mar
riage caps the climax of misery, and the unfor
tunate one, hitherto so utterly regardless of the
plain dictates and remonstrances of herdelicate
nature, becomes an unwilllntesunject of medi
cal
treatment. 'Phis Is hut a truthful picture of I
the experience of thousands of our young wo
men.
Long before the ability to exercise the lime
t ionsof the-generativo organs, they require an
education of their peculiar nervous system,
composed of what is called the tissue, Which Is,
in common with the female breast anti lips ev
